The United States joined World War 1 first because German U-Boats sunk the <em>Louisiana</em> Ship which was carrying 1962 passengers where 1198 lost their lives. The ship had 128 Americans as it left for Liverpool from New-York on May 1st, 1915 which resulted in the rise of a lot of outrage in the U.S. Secondly, Germany had resumed restricted submarine warfare in the Atlantic through a policy initiated in 1915 which allowed U-Boats to hunt and sink merchant ships without warning. The entry of the U.S in the war resulted in a boom in the economy as industries enjoyed an increase in their profits. The war further impacted change on the social, economic and political as the U.S emerged as a world military and industrial leader. There was also a rise in immigrants from other European countries with estimates of 300,000-500000 African Americans moving North to the cities.

How did the Industrial Revolution help to cause a divide between the North &amp; South?
Irina18 [472]
It is probably more nearly correct to state that the Northern states offered more fertile soil for industrialization to grow and prosper than the South. The comments above about slavery are misstated. The Southern economy was indeed agrarian and dependent upon slave labor; however the reason for this is was that the economy in that portion of the country consisted of large scale plantations of staple crops, primarily cotton. It is manifestly incorrect to state that immigrants did not want to move to a slave society. Immigrants to this country came from agrarian economies, and would have preferred to continue that practice, however there was no available land in the South. It was under no circumstances a moral value judgment as the above answer alludes; they remained in large cities and worked in factories because they had no choice.
Slaves were in fact used for occasional factory work, including but not limited to the Tredegar Iron Works in Richmond, Va. Slaves also worked as blacksmiths, shipwrights, gin operators, carpenters, etc. The law of supply and demand , however, dictated that they were primarily used as plantation labor, not factory workers.
Industrialization was possible in the South, and it was indeed industrialized after Reconstruction, yet most of the workers were white; hardly any were former slaves.
Bottom line: industrialization came to the North because the North's climate, geography, etc. did not lend itself to large scale agriculture. Also, the North had an abundance of navigable streams which were absent in the South. The South was more suitable for large scale agriculture, and its economy developed in that fashion. Slavery was a necessary element in maintaining that economy; but it was not a value judgment.

What steps has the international community taken to address humanitarian crises throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centur
vovangra [49]
Rawanda- The United Nations sent a peacekeeping force in order to try to limit the fallout from the civil war and genocide taking place in the country. They were somewhat ineffective, due to few troops on the ground, limited authorization for using force, and the overwhelming amount of violence occurring.

Tienanmen Square- The international community condemned China for its brutal use of force against student protesters in the country. Sanctions were also employed, and China found itself briefly exiled from the diplomatic community. Ultimately, China was too important an economic and security partner for the world to shun. Little has changed in terms of human rights in the country following the incident.   

Citizens like me can read and become informed. We in the United States are able to choose our leaders, an incredible privilege and globally important responsibility, due to our nation's status in the world. Given this fact, we should be the most informed citizens in the world; we are not. A more informed citizenry would elect leaders whose ideas are at least based on intimate knowledge of the issues, regardless of whether or not everyone agrees with those ideas.
